I recently sold a couple 235 sized Roch B's to another popular aftermarket provider @ $50 each and used the credits towards a needed more expensive part. One of the carbs was from a popular on line rebuilder (not carbking) and it had a problem with a vacuum leak around the throttle plate that I couldn't get him to correct. I included that info upfront on the trade in. The other had a problem with the accelerator pump circuit and that info was also shared. I thought about making 1 out of 2 but was committed to running dual carbs and went another way, a successful way btw....
What the aftermarket provider (AMPs for short) does with those carbs is to be seen but I was upfront with them.
Oddly enough I recently retired my trusty old 49 216 engine that had a Roch B that ran flawlessly and without error for the 6 yrs I ran it. I drained it down and am thinking about hermetically sealing it up so I can reuse it on the 216 after I rebuild it or a very knowledgeable poster on these forums modify's it into a high pressure firebreath'n two-sixty-something monster 216, LOL.
